Its not that simple though. The only type of people who can break into the industry are those who come from affluent backgrounds and have the necessary financial support system to allow for unpaid work for 6 months. So basically it will be the Sorchas , Oisin’s , Ruairi’s that grew up in houses where the house number was taken off and replaced with Ardeevin, Knock Grena etc also the tax payer has to pay these rich kids dole . this is the negative tax that corporations are “paying” these days. A cynical person might think Liberty Global are looking exclusively for a higher class/breeding of intern.

Anyone who has ever worked in deliveries has a problem with house numbers replaced with names for no reason. You’d be driving around a housing estate for ages looking for Gort na mBláth , Pussy Willow House or whatever when really the house is just number 22. and looks the same as the other gaffs.

Because a cynical, bloated third-level sector has, with the full support of successive governments, run a massively successful propaganda campaign to get young people out of the trades and onto near-worthless courses.
